Why is it that Veno's can buff other players with Bramble Guard but not our pets?

:confused:

    I don't think you can buff pets full stop...

    Pets cannot be buffed, period. You can heal your pet, and other venos can heal your pet but that is all you can do.

    Spell description says 'friendly target', so then it depends on what kind of target your pet is, if it's a friendly target, then it's a bug, either in skill description or in skill implementation. If so, this should be reported.

    Cleric skill 'Purify' also mentions 'friendly target', if this skill can be used on pets, the problem is with Bramble Guard, if not, then pets aren't friendly targets (makes one wonder what are friendly targets.

    I also see 'target' and 'squad member', is there a list somwhere that defines all these?

    I think somewhere in the later levels, pets can learn their own reflect skill. That's what I've seen in the pet skill tree. >_>

    You can purchase new skills for your pet(s) but are limited to having only 4 skills per pet.

    Come to think of it, pets seem to start with two skills already, but from the looks of it they only use the one you have "right clicked". And it always(?) reverts back to "bash" when you resummon.

    Is there a way to make them use multiple skills? Or do you have to left-click on "the other" skill" while they fight?

    depending on the level of the pet when it is tamed it could have 0 - 4 skills I think. most I have seen is 3 on a pet, but i'm only 39 ^^

    and as far as I can tell only one skill can be auto at a time. you have to left click on the others while fighting. It has worked well for me. Just have Bash on auto while just clicking Roar ( attracts enemy attacks ) or the other skills when needed.

    Yeah, you can't bramble pets unfortunately... Even though I and every other Veno would love if you could. Every pet will start out with at least 1 skill. Also, most of the rare pets come with 4 skills and some come with 3. As far as getting it to use other skills, you can also use alt+2/3/4/5 to use skills as well. I prefer this method over double-clicking them tbh. Just seems to be a lot easier/quicker than clicking I guess.
